WordPress plugin: Polylang Comments Merger

Here at rbnet.it we are using the famous Polylang plugin for WordPress to manage tranlsations. Normally, the plugin does not offer the option to merge comments from different translations of a post.

For this reason I’ve made a small extension to the Polylang plugin: Polylang Comments Merger.

Polylang Comments Merger merges comments from all available translations of a post or a page and show them, on each version of the post/page translation, in the chronological order when they have been made. No changes are made to the db: comments remain internally attached to the post or page they were made on.

Polylang Comments Merger Installation

Upload the whole polylang-comments-merger directory to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.

Activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress.

Plugin Options

Polylang Comments Merger does not have any options. After activation all features are immediately available.

On the frontend a post will show all the comments from all its translated version.
